We gathered at Skara docks, ready to escort a caravan to the new Garrison in East Britain, There were 4 Britannia Guards and a handful of skara Braen soldiers. We had been alerted to the possibilty of an assualt due to the valuable nature of our cargo. A consignment of gunpowder for the Garrison, well mainly for the
commanders new cannon's !

We met the first group of Brigands soon after we left Skara, on the road to the crossroads. There appeared to only be one, so after the customary exchamge of empty threats we attempted to push our way past. We were attacked from all sides by more of them hidden in the trees and so forth. We immediately banded together and held our ground.



We fought off the threat and continued on our way through the pass towards Britain. We approached the narrow opening toward the east side and spotted a number of unsavoury characters in strategic positions on the ramparts. The Cleric attempted to negotiate with them with little effect. A further battle ensued, and again the Guard banded together to easily repel the Brigands. Throughout the skirmish the Commander was heard to yell "Meh gunpowder!" several times!



On arrival at the new Britannia Guard headquarters, the commander broke out the Ale and rations and preceeded to exchange war stories with their Skara Braen bretheren. Once the guests had departed the Commander put the consignment to good use !!!
